Why does the pregnant woman feel pain around the eyes when squeezing her belly?

When a woman is pregnant, she should pay attention to all aspects of her body. During pregnancy, the body is easily damaged, the most common of which is a cold. Women are very likely to catch a cold when they are pregnant, and after a cold, women cannot choose medication, otherwise it will affect their health. So why do pregnant women have pain around the eyes? This makes many women unclear. Let me introduce it in detail below.

Pregnant women have pain around their eyes:

Starting from the second trimester, the fetus will grow very fast and the belly will be stretched, so the area around the belly button will feel stretched. It is recommended to use moisturizer to moisturize the skin on the belly as much as possible at this time, otherwise stretch marks will easily appear. Please rest assured that the pain around the belly button of pregnant women will not affect the baby in the belly.

There is another possibility that pregnant women may experience pain around their belly buttons: in the early stages of pregnancy, there will be occasional cramping in the lower abdomen, sometimes only on one side, sometimes the entire lower abdomen will hurt, but it will not be too painful, only a slight cramp. This is mainly because the ligaments supporting the uterus are pulled upward due to the swelling of the uterus during pregnancy. No special treatment is required, just rest. If the pain is severe and unbearable, or it is continuous pain rather than occasional cramps, you need to see an obstetrician and gynecologist.

In the early stages of pregnancy, some abdominal pains are physiological, that is, normal reactions caused by pregnancy, but some are pathological and may indicate the occurrence of crises such as miscarriage.

1. Physiological stomach pain

In the early stages of pregnancy, many expectant mothers always feel some stomach pain, sometimes accompanied by early pregnancy reactions such as vomiting. This is mainly caused by increased gastric acid secretion in the early stages of pregnancy. At this time, you should pay attention to diet adjustment. The meals should be light and easy to digest. You can eat some toasted steamed bread slices or soda crackers for breakfast. The discomfort will disappear naturally as the first trimester ends.

2. Pathological stomach pain

If a pregnant woman experiences paroxysmal lower abdominal pain or regular abdominal pain, back pain, or pelvic pain in the first few months of pregnancy, the problem may be more complicated. If it is accompanied by vaginal spotting or a noticeable feeling of abdominal heaviness, it may indicate threatened miscarriage. Expectant mothers should move less, stay in bed more, avoid sexual intercourse, avoid lifting heavy objects, drink water, and seek medical attention promptly. If pain worsens or bleeding continues, seek medical attention immediately.

If you experience severe unilateral lower abdominal pain, accompanied by vaginal bleeding or fainting, it may be an ectopic pregnancy and you should go to the hospital immediately. Some expectant mothers believe that abdominal pain in the early stages of pregnancy may be accidental and it is not a big deal and they just need to lie down in bed and rest. This blind measure of bed rest to protect the fetus is not advisable. You should go to the hospital for examination and treatment in time to avoid delaying the disease.

In terms of understanding why pregnant women experience pain around the eyes and belly, women should also prevent such problems and physical illnesses. When women are pregnant, their diet and daily routine should be arranged reasonably. At the same time, when women are about 5 months pregnant, they should also do appropriate exercise and walk more every day, which is very helpful for improving their physical fitness, which will help with delivery.
